Second spring in our home in MT, zone 4b. Can't wait to see what comes back. Lots to learn but loving the folks at GT!

Took a couple pics today waiting on a bloom. Neglected to mention it was in a pot. Hoping it overwinters well. Or well enough!

We have tons of the blue kind growing in a field at the nursery where I work. I did cuttings of it today also. Too bad it is a sterile variety

@Doomsdoor what does that mean, exactly? And how do you know? I've always had annual gardens in rentals so I have plenty to learn about propagation. I'm still in the "hope this works, guess we'll find out next year" stage. Looking to least what i can though

@rennezoe - I'm in Wisconsin, and mine WAS in a pot, it froze and I lost it. Any chance you have seeds that we can swap? It isn't frost hardy here.

I don't have seed this year but I did take several cuttings and have a few in water and potting mix. Also trying the layering thing. If I have any luck I'll let you know @KariSamuel

Thanks! @Acetaker and I are both trying to get seeds, and not very many people have them here in the United States.

@klmkim posted it on Facebook, Renne Salois of you want to see. Quality isn't as good but still pretty cool. Hubby said "good timing, babe". Ha... like once in 30 years!! Was really wishing I could share it here @teamgardentags

Are these ever going to bloom?? The buds have looked this way for days and one already dropped. Is there something i should be doing?

They love well drained soil and make sure it gets plenty of sun ,this plant will die in winter and come back when the temperature rises

@Acetaker I get 1 flower every other day or so. Usually has 10-15 buds but never more than 1 flower! The Vine itself is finally starting to grow so maybe it'll take off. I hope so. It's going to be time to move it inside soon 😔
